Michael Jackson Dominates Euro Chart



Michael Jackson achieves unique pan-European sales domination this week with the top four titles on European Top 100 Albums, and five of the top six. "When Love Takes Over" (Positiva/EMI) by French DJ David Guetta featuring Kelly Rowland climbs 3-1 on European Hot 100 Singles.

Epic/Sony Music Entertainment's Jackson catalog dominates the sales picture via a variety of compilations. "King of Pop" comes out on top, climbing 24-1 on the new composite survey, after re-entering the German chart at No. 1 and re-emerging at No. 4 in Italy.

"The Essential Michael Jackson" climbs 69-2 overall, fuelled by a 20-1 climb in the United Kingdom on sales of 69,000. "The Collection" makes a composite 49-3 climb, moving 22-1 in France, 29-1 in Flanders, 40-1 in neighboring Wallony and 3-1 in Denmark. 1982's classic "Thriller" is up 31-4 overall and his "Number Ones" anthology 10-6.

Elsewhere on the pan-European top ten, Black Eyed Peas' "The E.N.D. (The Energy Never Dies)" (Interscope/Universal) falls 2-5, Green Day's "21st Century Breakdown" (Reprise/Warner Music) 4-7, Lady Gaga's "The Fame" (Interscope/Universal) 5-8 and Bruce Springsteen & the E Street Band's "Greatest Hits" (Columbia/Sony Music Entertainment) 3-9.

Last week's No. 1 on European Too 100 Albums, Dream Theater's "Black Clouds and Silver Linings" (Roadrunner), tumbles to No. 10.

Nota Jase : Memandang saya sendiripun sedang dalam usaha untuk mengumpul album-album dan juga video original yang pernah dikeluarkan oleh Wacko Jacko maka berita ini sebenarnya membuatkan saya teruja. Di kawasan Asia & Afrika di mana Wacko Jacko adalah sebenar-benarnya 'Raja Pop' saya kurang pasti syarikat manakah yang membuat audit terhadap jualan album-album beliau. Seingat saya Nielson SoundScan cuma merekodkan jualan album di Amerika Utara, Eropah, Australia & New Zealand sahaja. Sehingga kini saya masih mencari CD HIStory yang masih belum dicetak dan dijual semula di Malaysia. Selepas seminggu kematian beliau, jumlah jualan CD-CD Wacko Jacko di USA sahaja telah mencecah 7 juta unit.

[p]Staking is that the method by that the skins square measure softened and stretched, and a "nappy" surface is supplemental to the pelt . My quest for affordable ugg boots was a tremendous adventure for me and i realize you will be also nuts to know how I obtained my very awesome uggs . Another reason is that, UGGs are all made in hand . H e r f a v o u r i t e w i t h s h o r t s k i r t s u p p l e m e n t , a c t u a l l y t h i s u g g b o o t s c o l l o c a t i o n i s o n e o f t h e b e s t . We all know online suppliers provide customers with the [url=http://www.uggbootssaleoutlett.co.uk]ugg boots sale[/url] same products on much cheaper prices than local store owners . sheepskin footwear . The boots come in plenty of variations that include tall boots that reach from mid calf, while the shorter ugg boots are usually ankle length or mid calf length . Like a spring, the cushion is set in the midsoles of the sports shoes and springs the runner back and adds more power to him or her . We will presume that you simply learn some sneaker models you adore but you are on the web.[/p][p]The LCD screen can be of 1024 x 600 pixels resolution or increased at 1366 x 768 pixels . If they are usually dried out you隆炉ll be able to clean all of them frequently using a [url=http://www.uggbootssaleoutlett.co.uk]ugg boots sale uk[/url] tender clean . UGG is not a brand at first, but a general term for a class of shoes . On the other hand, if your [url=http://www.uggbootssaleoutlett.co.uk]ugg boots sale outlet[/url] hair is regularly treated with chemicals to make it curly or to give it color, it is best to buy a hair product that maintains its good health despite the intrusion of chemicals . One of them could possibly be the Ugg bailey key boot which has traditional and uniquely designed buttons on its whole body to provide that stylish and luxurious look . The Laguna shows off with a leather strap over soft fleece and a suede instep . A new pair of Uggs can now top well over $150 . This is mainly because there are those people on the internet that are out to rip people off their money and this can be a very disappointing thing to experience.[/p]
